Jimmy Carter, the Peanut Farmer and ex- President, was caught in a lie. Fortunately, the lie is caught on tape and was shown on the “Today” Show and Bill O’Reilly’s show (Michelle Maulkin as guest host.)

Yesterday, Carter allegedly called Bush the worst President ever (per AP, which incidentally got the full quote wrong.) Carter’s statement, however, dealt with foreign affairs and America’s dealings in the world today. Today, Carter said that he was “misquoted” and that the Arkansas Gazette got it wrong. It turns out the Editor for the Arkansas Gazette taped the interview and Carter was not misquoted.

I would not take Jimmy Carter seriously. After all, doesn’t he remember the following, which happened on “his watch”?: Afghanistan is invaded by the Soviet Union; Iran Islamic revolutionists rise to power and overthrow the Shah; and Carter gives away the Panama Canal. Lets not talk about his economic policies, which included 18% car loans, 20+% mortgage rates, and high inflation.

Of course Carter lied, but will the msm, such as PMS or CNN, even call him on this? Of course not!

McCain, that’s a great point. Its funny how the Republican ex Presidents disappear and do not snipe at their successors. The Republican ex Presidents come back to help with disasters, such as Bush I, who helped with Katrina Relief. However, after he lost the 1992 election, he disappeared and did not snipe at Clinton.

I guess it has to do with Carter and Clinton – two Democrats – with no legacy – searching for “a legacy.”

Yeah Tina that’s part of it. Even Clinton has steered clear of backbiting for the most part, except a couple of mistakes early in his retirement. Carter was not only one of the worst presidents in U.S. history, he is THE worst EX-presidents in U.S. history.

I think I’ve mentioned this somewhere on this site before, but it is worth repeating. The most memorable thing about the Carter era for me was listening to the grown folks trying to figure out what Billy was going to do next.

According to the official “Price Guide to Beer Cans”, written by the owner of Pacific Coast Breweriana, 2 or 3 dollars per can is “more than reasonable”. I’d guess 10 bucks for a six pack would be a good round figure to work with.

McCain – I once gave credit to Carter for being a good ex-President. Not meddling in current affairs and building houses. However, I have changed my opinion. He was the worst President of the 20th Century and he is the worst ex-President.

I still can’t believe my interest rate on a 1980 vehicle was 19%.

Clinton has made some tasteless remarks, but he has slithered into his hole when he has done this rather quickly. His remarks, however,were more measured and less inflamatory.
